What do a lawyer, a Brazilian dancer, two ticket inspectors and a fast talking sailor have in common?

Not much as it turns out but that doesn't stop them from having an adventure together in Jacques Rozier's charmingly zany comedy about communicative mishaps. Rozier's keen eye for behaviour and feeling for spontaneity leads us down many winding paths travelled using several different modes of transport with a slew of a surprises along the way. Yves Afonso (he looks like Belmondo but he isn't) gives a virtuoso motor-mouth performance as Marcel Petitgas, the camera is wielded by the severely underrated Acácio de Almeida. Come along with Rozier and his ragtag crew!

One of the most original and undersung voices of the French New Wave, Jacques Rozier made films attuned to the beauty and heartbreak of improvised days, chance encounters, and the sun-drenched rhythms of summer holidays. We're delighted to be screening some of his work this summer, to coincide with the release of the wonderful Radiance Films box-set.
